?|The Panzer Selbstfahrlafette V, or the Sturer Emil, is somewhat of a departure from the previous two German tank destroyers, the [[Tank:Pz.Sfl. IVc|Pz.Sfl. IVc]] and the [[Tank:Nashorn|Nashorn]]. It has a very low top speed and poor acceleration, making it a somewhat inflexible machine. It also retains the very poor armor and large size of its predecessors, making it a vulnerable target. Its top gun has extreme alpha damage and penetration for its tier, but it can only carry 15 rounds of ammunition. If the driver of this tank is using this gun, they must be absolutely sure to make every shot count.+

?This is a difficult tank to play. It is fragile, '''very slow''', and slow to turn. It's open top and light armor means that it's a favorite artillery target. The grind to the top gun is not fun. The 105 mm doesn't do enough damage to intimidate opponents. It requires the Sturer Emil to be exposed more often to deal damage. +

?With the 128 mm top gun the alpha damage is great. Getting to a place that you can inflict that damage is the challenge. Maps with a lot of flanking and movement will be a trial. Try to stay near friendlies who can keep you from being over run. Your primary job is to support your friendly tanks so they can keep you alive.+

?This tank can excel by using its' gun depression on maps with hills and ridges. It is best at peeking over the top of a rise, taking a shot with that awesome alpha, and then pulling back down out of sight. +

?With its' poor acceleration, slow rotation speed, and light armor the Pz.Sfl.V is not good at peek-a-boom around corners. On a city map it is often best to stay behind a line of heavies and '''carefully''' shoot over them as they move back and forth. Use their armor to protect you as much as possible. +
? +
?Keep in mind that it only takes 2 or 3 hits for a reasonably good game. Get 4 or more hits you will be having fun!+
